Tsuyoshi Ozawa commented on YARN-2225:
--------------------------------------
Why not making vmem-pmem ratio larger to address the problem?
> Turn the virtual memory check to be off by default

> The virtual memory check may not be the best way to isolate applications.
> Virtual memory is not the constrained resource. It would be better if we
> limit the swapping of the task using swapiness instead. This patch will turn
> this DEFAULT_NM_VMEM_CHECK_ENABLED off by default and let users turn it on if
> they need to.
